October 16 marked the beginning of the UAE's rain season. Known as ‘Al Wasm’, the season is charecterised by a significant drop in temperatures, strong winds and light to heavy rains. Greenery starts blooming in the desert during the season.
“The Al Wasm season is favourable for plant growth and agriculture in general due to the rains and a drop in temperatures,” Ibrahim Al Jarwan, chairman of the Board of Directors of the Emirates Astronomy Society and member of the Arab Federation for Astronomy and Space Sciences, said earlier.
The UAE will transition into winter by the end of this month. Cooler temperatures are expected to prevail for 100 days.
